The file *.doc is not available

I recently started getting a message when attempting to open an existing word
document. It says "the file "filename.doc" is not available. When I attempt
to close the word application, I get the message: "changes have been made
that affect the globaltemplate, Normal.doc. Do you want to save those
changes?"

I am able to create a new word document but then if I attempt to reopen it
after it has been saved I get the "not available" message again. The same
type of thing is happening when I attempt to open an excel document.

I did a repair on the office 2000, but I still get these messages. Any ideas?
Thanks
